The Webster: Teen Vogue x The Coveteur
When visiting Miami I always make a point to stop in the stunning and inspiring luxury boutique The Webster. Housed in a historical Art Deco building, the shop sells the best and most unique pieces from all of my favorite designers, from Chanel dresses and leather bags from Celine, to bikinis from Lisa Marie Fernandez and perfect coverups from SEA.
In this photo diary, I paired my love for shopping, my respect for the boutique's glamorous founding partner Laure Heriard Dubreuil, and the talent of Stephanie, Erin and Jake from The Coveteur, to craft a creative round-up of my favorite picks from the store's Spring inventory. And, it didn't hurt that I got to play dress up too! I was unable to walk away with the neon lace Proenza Schouler tee or tennis chic white pleated Givenchy skirt that I was photographed wearing, but I was told that the Spring sale would be hitting thewebstermiami.com soon.
1/14Fashion Market Editor Mary Kate Steinmiller shows The Coveteur team her favorite spring offerings from the Miami-based boutique.
2/14This Celine bag is my absolute favorite color of blue. Its practically the color of the water of the South Beach shore. It pairs perfectly with the primary brights of these Tabitha Simmons heels.
3/14The Webster feeds both the fashion appetite and the literary mind. Aside from shoes, bags and clothing, the shop retails beautiful art books and fashion magazines. I'll take one Balenciaga wallet and an issue of Monocle please!
4/14Oh so practical, a colorful Lanvin flat makes any outfit pop. You may need them if you strut around town in the quirky printed Suno platforms pictured here.
Erin and Stephanie of The Coveteur's notes:
Who doesn't love a Lanvin flat? Since we are on our feet so much, all of these shoes are perfect for us Coveteurs: chic and comfortable!
5/14Once you catch your breath from your reaction to the luxurious finds in the store, you may lose it again from the boutique's interiors alone. The building was designed by famed architect Henry Hohauser and the interior is like a museum. How fitting to see two snakeskin bags on the beautiful carved mantle on the store's second floor.
We love Balenciaga so we obviously melted when we saw these totes. They are such a fresh twist on a classic bag and the colors and perfect for summer.
6/14Miami hardly gets cold, but that doesn't mean you can't shop for Chanel earmuffs! Warm your ears, but bare your arms in this beautiful Chanel dress. I love how this printed wall coordinates seamlessly with the gold details.
Erin and Stephanie of The Coveteur's notes:
This photo is full of what we like to call "Rare Chanel," and the Webster has tons of it! We love the pieces that are quirkier and not as mainstream. These earmuffs and dress are the perfect example!
7/14I can't get enough of Lisa Marie Fernandez's neoprene bikinis, one pieces, mini skirts and dresses. I love the pop of aqua on this scuba dress, and it could go from beach to street if paired with the clean and crisp dove grey Celine bag.
8/14This shot is like the perfect gift guide for the luxury lover. Lanvin cufflinks for the boys, shiny patent iPod covers and card cases for the girls, and petite bottles of eau de perfume for that special someone.
Erin and Stephanie of The Coveteur's notes:
More Chanel. Can you tell we are fans?
9/14Always smart to stick a novel in your handbag, but if your handbag is a book, you're already set! Olympia Le Tan's story book clutches, quilted Chanels, and crocodile Celines are highlights of The Webster's accessories offerings.
10/14I love these leggy golden birds, and begged Erin and Stephanie to include some layers of charms and sparkle on the statues' necks. I have a heart charm necklaces similar to the one around the slender neck of the bird on the left. Quite the fashion flock hanging out with their boucle Chanel bag!
11/14This photo offers the perfect travel essentials; A pair of candy colored patent Repetto flats for comfort and a colorful striped shawl to keep you warm on the plane, that luckily can double as a beach blanket for when you reach your resort locale.
Erin and Stephanie of The Coveteur's notes:
Ok, we LIVE in our Repetto flats. They are like a second skin for us and we love the colors too. We are still working on our ballet skills though. . .
Since starting The Coveteur we have also developed a love for candles since so many fashion people have them in their homes. The candle from the Webster is one of our favorite scents yet!
12/14I do love Miami, but what I love more are these not so creepy gold spider charm bracelets from Aurelie Bidermann. The diamond encrusted frog necklace isn't too bad either!
13/14Seems like the perfect farmers market stand; Selling beach staple Haviannas, Proenza Schouler bags, pineapples, Clementines and lemons. I'll take one of each!
Erin and Stephanie of The Coveteur's notes:
We could wax poetic about our love for the PS1 all day. Not only is this one of our favorite bags but the color is amazing. How could you resist? The Webster also had an amazing Havaianas bar where you can customize your own sandals.
14/14Phaidon's essential color blocked travel guides provide the perfect backdrop for this amazing mid media necklace. I'd pack it for a trip to Los Angeles, Paris, Barcelona or San Francisco, grab a Wallpaper City Guide, and be on my way.
